Okay, I have to defend the travelling BOAs... we had every intention of logging in and sharing our travel journal notes with everyone, but the first week we were sailing to remote islands and villages, and none of them had internet access for us. Some of them didn't even have ATM machines! It wasn't until we got to Amsterdam on day 9 (or as we called it, 'Gay 9') that we saw some internet cafes. Unfortunately, those cafes were also the Coffee Houses, thus making them an extremely difficult place to concentrate.
We did have a great time, saw and did a lot! Charlie took approx. 300 pictures, and he's talking about putting together a slide show.
We also had a manual journal that we maintained.
The biggest surprise of the trip was the new Rollie. As soon as he was designated "Chief", the calm, soft-spoken, Rollie that we loved was gone and replaced by opinionated, bossy, unruly Rollie, AKA Chief Ativa. If you run into him, look out. You'll know for sure if its Chief Ativa if he's wearing a pirate bandana.
